Happily Ever After

There are a lot of things going on in this bridal shower card including some retired products. 

In the background I used a retired piece of designer series paper, and the sentiment stamps are also retired from In the Moment and 

Many Messages. 

The second layer of designer series paper is from the Textured Chic Collection, and I have created die cuts using the Cottage Flower dies, Messages die, and Stylish Shapes dies.

The flower image was colored in slightly with Petal Pink ink on a Blending Brush.

Wildflower Friendship

There are several different collections of designer series paper used on this card including patterns from the Hand Penned, Abstract Beauty and Sweet Talk collections. I enjoy trying to coordinate papers from different collection even though often times I just use two or three patterns from the same designer series paper collection on a project.

The Wildflower Path stamp set has some two and three step stamping options for the flowers which really makes it fun to use (and they are photopolymer stamps so you can line them up perfectly).  The sentiment is from the Many Messages stamp and is cut out with the coordinating Messages die.

There are a few Sea Glass Shapes added for a little texture and color as well.

Sunshine and Rainbows

I went a little crazy with the scrap bin on these cards coordinating them all with the Sunshine and Rainbows designer series paper (SAB 2022). The card stock colors all coordinate with the colors in the designer series paper pack and I used Granny Apple Green for all the card bases.

There are die cuts made with the Picture This, Stitched So Sweetly, Tasteful Labels, Stitched Rectangles and Messages dies. I also used a couple embossing folders - the Hive 3D folder, Tin Tile 3D folder and Painted Textures 3D folder.

For the sentiments I chose to use the Many Messages and Special Moments (SAB 2022) stamp sets...

I also added a variety of different adhesive embellishments to each card.

Since the cards all coordinate with each other, I wanted to share them with you all at once instead of in different posts to show that you can use the same papers and other products to put together many different layouts.

Blackberry Messages

These two cards use the same layout and materials, but I have chosen to use different sentiments on each one, both of them coming from the Many Happenings stamp and die cut with the Messages die.

Lots and lots of layering...this card uses lots of different elements and Stampin' dimensionals including  a die and embossing folder. Many of the elements come from the Blackberry Beauty ephemera pack which you can see at the bottom of this post.  There are lots and lots of great elements that can be used one cards and other projects in the pack.

The embossing folder I used is called Painted Texture and I just love the effect it gives.  For the sentiment I used the Many Happenings stamp and Messages die, also popping that up on the tag using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stitched Leaves

The Holiday catalog has so many fun bundles!  The one I have chosen to use on this card is called the Gorgeous Leaves bundle - I used the stamp set in the background and the two leaves that have been die cut were made with the Intricate Leaves die.

One of the leaves was die cut from a piece of Beauty of the Earth designer series paper and the other from Bumblebee card stock.  The die cut sentiment is from the Many Messages stamp and Messages die while the second sentiment is from the 

Inspired Thoughts stamp set.
